- Propose merging Category:Washington Spirit non-playing staff to Category:Washington Spirit coaches
- Nominator's rationale: Clearly a redundant category and should be merged. Seany91 (talk) 19:39, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in WikiProject Football's list of association football-related page discussions. S.A. Julio (talk) 02:40, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose These are distinct categories, Category:Washington Spirit coaches belongs to the Category:Association football managers category tree, intended to cover the manager/head coach of football teams. Category:Washington Spirit non-playing staff belongs to the Category:Association football non-playing staff category tree, covering all other coaching roles and club staff. S.A. Julio (talk) 02:46, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose per Julio; distinct categories, with 'non-playing staff' being a well established type - see Category:Association football non-playing staff by club. GiantSnowman 09:51, 28 August 2022 (UTC)

- The result of the discussion was: merge. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 14:06, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
- Propose merging Category:Medieval Tunisian mathematicians to Category:Mathematicians of medieval Islam
- Propose merging Category:Medieval Tunisian physicians to Category:Physicians of medieval Islam
- Propose merging Category:Medieval Jewish physicians of Tunisia to Category:Medieval Jewish physicians and Category:Jews of Ifriqiya
- Propose merging Category:Medieval Tunisian astronomers to Category:Astronomers of medieval Islam
- Propose merging Category:10th-century Tunisian rabbis to Category:10th-century rabbis and Category:Jews of Ifriqiya and Category:10th-century people of Ifriqiya
- Propose merging Category:11th-century Tunisian rabbis to Category:11th-century rabbis and Category:Jews of Ifriqiya and Category:11th-century people of Ifriqiya
- Propose merging Category:12th-century Tunisian rabbis to Category:12th-century rabbis and Category:Jews of Ifriqiya and Category:12th-century people of Ifriqiya
- Propose merging Category:11th-century Tunisian historians to Category:11th-century historians and Category:Historians of medieval Islam and Category:11th-century people of Ifriqiya added 29 August
- Propose merging Category:13th-century Tunisian historians to Category:13th-century historians and Category:Historians of medieval Islam and Category:13th-century people of Ifriqiya added 29 August
- Nominator's rationale: merge per WP:SMALLCAT, only 1, 2 or 3 articles per category. A second merge target is not needed in the former four cases, where all articles are already in a century subcategory of Category:People of Ifriqiya.
- If not merged, rename "Tunisian" to "of Ifriqyia" per WP:C2C and per consensus in this earlier discussion. Marcocapelle (talk) 15:49, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
- I added two categories more on 29 August. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:03, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
- Support all these. Tunisia didnt exist then. Rathfelder (talk) 21:12, 30 August 2022 (UTC)
- Support, but better to rename to Foo of the medieval Islamic world. Just Islam is very inprecise, better to use the full medieval Islamic world. --Privybst (talk) 20:33, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
- Renaming the targets requires a separate discussion and I notice you meanwhile started that discussion elsewhere. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:58, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

- Propose merging Category:Populated places in Lanivtsi Raion to Category:Populated places in Ternopil Oblast
- Propose merging Category:Populated places in Monastyryska Raion to Category:Populated places in Ternopil Oblast
- Nominator's rationale: delete, there is nothing wrong with parent category Category:Ukrainian raions abolished during the 2020 administrative reform with 369 articles about former raions. However, a limited (58) number of these former raions have their own categories populated with current things (populated places and football clubs, mostly) and that does not make much sense. Current places and football clubs belong in a category of a current administrative division, not a former one. Marcocapelle (talk) 08:42, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
- Support Current places should not be categorised by their former administrative master. 15:56, 28 August 2022 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Laurel Lodged (talk • contribs)

Category:Yeomen

- The result of the discussion was: no consensus. (non-admin closure) Qwerfjkltalk 14:10, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
- Nominator's rationale: I see absolutely no point to this category. It collects articles with no relation to each other except for a word. It is of no use to navigation whatsoever. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:32, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Oppose It is a long-standing social class. Dimadick (talk) 06:06, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
- Indeed it was. But it's not being used for people who were in the social class, which is highly subjective in any case. It's just being used to collect all articles which have "yeoman" or "yeomen" in the title. We don't usually keep categories like that. What's the point to them? -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:19, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep but purge of people. I cannot see why Kincard is in this at all. Broughton ought to be in a regimental category for King's Body Guard of the Yeoman of the Guard. I recall reading that yeoman of the signals was a role in the British navy and would need a subcat, if it could be populated. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:11, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
- A yeoman of signals is a signals petty officer in the RN. Category:Royal Navy sailors is fine. We don't need a category for every rank or specialism. -- Necrothesp (talk) 10:19, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
- Merge to Yeoman (disambiguation) in article space. There are too many completely different uses of the word yeoman to merit a category. Marcocapelle (talk) 06:06, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
